Does anyone know what this strap is for? Maybe for manually opening the door if your battery dies? Something else?

Edit: I now see the manual door open lever on the upper-righthand corner of the image. So what is the strap for?

Pretty sure that's the, "Oh shit" strap.

That strap is not a production component. It will be changed before production.

Yup! Tis base!

Dave,

You are right 99% of the time so I usually don't comment but the strap will be there for production. It is used to release the lock for the adjustable pedals.

Okay, Dave you have hit your quota for being wrong this decade. You can be wrong again in another 5-6 years.

While one would think that Raj knows the facts, I have it on good authority, that it's really the seat ejector button!!!!

I purchased one of their cigarette lighter eject buttons for one of my Vipers a while back. I think they still offer those.

I have the same exact mod on my '05 FGT. Great minds think alike!
